SLES hand wash formulation for 100 grams in a table format.docx

he formulation for a 100-gram batch of normal hand wash combines essential ingredients to create an effective and pleasant product. Water serves as the solvent, constituting 60-70 grams, while Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (10-15 grams) and Cocamidopropyl Betaine (5-10 grams) act as primary and secondary surfactants, respectively, facilitating cleansing and foaming. Glycerin (2-5 grams) functions as a humectant to retain skin moisture, with Sodium Chloride (1-2 grams) thickening the solution for optimal consistency. Phenoxyethanol (0.5-1 grams) acts as a preservative, ensuring product stability, while essential oils or fragrance (0.5-1 grams) provide a pleasing scent. Citric Acid is used as needed to adjust the pH (5.5-6.5), ensuring skin compatibility. This formulation process ensures a balanced, effective hand wash that cleanses, moisturizes, and protects the skin while providing a pleasant user experience.
